Sewaholic Standard

Yes, yes, yes!

I have very exciting news! Last week, Mr Sewaholic asked me to marry him. And I said yes!

We went out for a delicious dinner, randomly on a Tuesday night, but I didn’t suspect anything other than a wonderful mid-week treat! He was dressed up, but said he’d come straight from a business meeting. So it seemed like a regular, but nice, dinner date to me. And then after dinner, when we came home and opened the door… our apartment was filled with roses, he got down on one knee, and said he wanted to spend his life with me! To which I said yes, yes, yes!

The ring is vintage, from the 1930s, and it’s handcrafted. One big diamond, ten tiny diamonds in a platinum setting. I love it. It’s perfectly me, I think!

I’m so excited to be making it official with the man I love, and to be starting this new chapter of our life together! There’s so much to plan (dresses! setting a wedding date! planning the honeymoon!) but right now we’re both just so happy! I’m the luckiest girl in the world.

I’m going to take a few days off from blogging – because wow, there are suddenly several new things added to my to-do list – but I’ll be back later this week with more!

About Tasia

Hi, I'm Tasia, and I love to sew! I started this blog as a creative outlet, and now I design sewing patterns, write about sewing and work on Sewaholic Patterns full-time. I'll be writing about sewing projects, posting about new pattern designs, and sharing what it's like to run a sewing pattern company!

Congratulations!!!!! That ring is so perfect. And do we presume there will be a sewaholic-made dress??? but if that would be stressful and take away from the day, then don’t do it just for us :) I wish you both all the happiness in the world!

Congratulations! I am so happy for you both – it’s such fun (and a little bit stressful – in a good way!) planning a wedding. The ring is absolutely beautiful too. You’re a lucky girl and he’s a very luck man!

Oh, that is great news!!!! Congratulations and best wishes to both of you. What a nice guy!!! Great choice in wife and ring!!!!
Looking very forward to all the plans and following this fun journey with you!!!
So happy for you both!!!

Congratulations! From all I’ve heard about him through your blog, it seems like you two are perfectly suited for each other. And the ring is gorgeous! (Even though I’m generally not a diamond girl, lol…the vintage rings are pretty, though.)

Congratulations! I love your ring – I got engaged in February and I really wanted vintage too but it was sooooo hard to find something I liked, then I spotted the one I loved in a jeweller’s window. (We chose it months before and my guy stashed it, lol.)

Oh my God!!! This is wonderful! Congratulations! Oh I’m sure it will be the most splendid wedding ever! Yay! The ring is to DIE for! I could faint from sheer happiness for you! You will be such a beautiful bride. Do let us know the date and the dress you are planning to make….
xoxo!!

Huge congratulations Tasia! I got married in January and it was the happiest day of my life, we’ve been together quite a while but making it official definitely changed us for the better. Good luck with your plans, on’t let it overwhelm you xx

Wooooooooooooh! That ring is delicious, and were your nails just that immaculate waiting for the little ring? The picture with you (rocking the picnic dress) and Mr. is just too sweet. Congratulations Tasia! xx

:) :) How Lovely! And what a gorgeous picture of you both!!
I for one am hoping for Sewaholic cocktail/bridesmaid dresses – if one person can actually design the bridesmaid/cocktail dress that *will* be worn again, it’s you! Go make a mint!

Hells yes!!!!! I am so excited for you, I cried happy tears when I heard! And I can’t wait to (when you’re ready) start hunting for dress patterns and fabrics! Congrats, I’m so excited to have a brother, finally. Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

Congratulations!!! And lifetime love aside, a wedding is such a fun, big party that you can make look however you want, and it’s so much fun to plan all that (for me it was, anyway), and you have such fabulous taste that I’m sure it will be just beautiful!

Congratulations !!! your ring is very beautiful and according to your vintage style. Did you make this choice or a surprise by Mr Sewholic ?
I think about your married dress : I hope you found a vintage dress with lace.
In France we think that it does not bring good luck to made the wedding dress.

Wow, I’m WAY late on this but let me add my congratulations to the overflowing pile! What a lovely way to ask, too. And here I’d assumed you were married already (or, like me, as married as you were going to get, anyway)

Such wonderful news Tasia. Your love for your man glows through all your writings. I know you’ll be very happy together and I wish you the VERY best.
P.S. Look how perfectly your dress fits at the back!
